the problem is that client tools are compiled with UNDEF_THREADS_HACK
flag, and my thread-related additions to the mysqltest.c can't be compiled.
Easy solution is to disable these in not-embedded case completely.

 The server sends a number of columns to the client.
 It uses a limited "fast" function for that instead of the
 general one. This fast function cannot send numbers larger 
 than 2 bytes. 
 This causes the client to expect smaller number of columns. 
 The client writes outside of the allocated memory buffer 
 as a result.
 Fixed the server to use the general function to send column
 count.
 Fixed the client to check the column count before writing
 column data. 

comments are fixed as was suggested in reviews.

bugs/wls in cset's comments. The targetted BUG's or WL's identifier must be specified
the first in the comments. The referred bugs wls can be typed in same as the targeted
clickable format.
If the the target of the fix is a WL and there are some references to bugs
then the first found reference is regarded as "co-target" so that the bug's identifier
comes up on the subject line along with the WL's and commit mail will update
the bug page. The latter feature can be disarmed (if there is no need to update
the referred bug's page) with typing the first a pseudo-bug pattern (bug#0).

This paticular cset will generate subject line containing bug#0 (as it was the first
referred) whereas the old version would put in the subject line the last referred
pattern (e.g bug#2147483648).

 - When returning metadata for scalar subqueries the actual type of the
   column was calculated based on the value type, which limits the actual
   type of a scalar subselect to the set of (currently) 3 basic types : 
   integer, double precision or string. This is the reason that columns
   of types other then the basic ones (e.g. date/time) are reported as
   being of the corresponding basic type.
   Fixed by storing/returning information for the column type in addition
   to the result type.

  Problem: GROUP_CONCAT on a multi-byte column can truncate
  in the middle of a multibyte character when applying
  group_concat_max_len limit. It produces an invalid
  multi-byte character in the result string.
  
The second, easier version - reusing old "warning_for_row" flag,
instead of introducing of "result_is_full" - which was
added in the previous commit.

 The parser is allocating Item_field for references by name in ORDER BY
 expressions. Such expressions however may point not only to Item_field 
 in the select list (or to a table column) but also to an arbitrary Item. 
 This causes Item_field::fix_fields to throw an error about missing 
 column.
 The fix substitutes Item_field for the reference with an Item_ref when 
 not pointing to Item_field.
